The story of MBM Biliardi starts in 1969 when the holding’s owner, Cav. Mariano Maggio, was only 23. After about two years of experience in the billiard industry as salesman in the Lazio region for the “Mari biliardi” company, settled in Siena, he decides to get into the billiard business on his own and opens the first small laboratory that was going to be the greatest billiards factory in Italy.
“The first laboratory was awful...” remembers the owner. It was only four square meters large and the only gear was a Black & Decker and a table obtained from the wood waste of the packages, while the workforcw consisted only of a wood finisher worker... who was absent often.

From this small entity, he opens a larger space of 150 sqm few years later. Here the first machines are being used and the attention is focused on the already made billiards with the intention of improving them in quality. Not long after, the factory is moved in the Mandrione area in Rome, in a 400 sqm large space where the production of new billiard tables begins. It is now that Cav. Maggio develops, along with a graphic design studio of Milan and a group of lawyers and architects, the prestigious trademark of the factory: MBM Biliardi (that stands for Mariano Maggio Biliardi)

Cav. Maggio, with his great perseverance and passion, in 1990 decides to plan a factory in a new location where it can’t go unnoticed, that is right next to the highway between Colleferro and Anagni, near Rome. The factory as it is today it’s the result of a complex design study, with the choice of the best gear and machines, come of them entirely designed by MBM itself. The need of numerically controlled machines used for the assembly process has to guarantee the high quality of the final product. The opening of the factory takes place in 1995, in conjunction with the billiard world championship of Fiuggi (Fr). Thanks to this circumstance, the greatest champions of the game visit the factory and appreciate the products and the quality of MBM Biliardi.

Over the years, the Cav. Maggio’s holding has obtained awards and approvals nationally and inetrnationally. For example, it is worth to mention the several world championships organized, above all in Las Vegas and Moscow. Thanks to the great tenacity of the Maggio family, now MBM Biliardi is a world leader for its quality and innovation. Our slogan is: “You can’t buy a random billiard table, only MBM Biliardi ensures art and technology”. Made in Italy, obviously.

The project of the factory MBM Billiardi, as we see it today in its special strategic location, near Rome and close to the highway “Autostrada del Sole”, between the exits of Anagni and Colleferro, is the result of a complex study, carried out choosing the best performing machines, some of which were designed and developed by MBM Biliardi itself. Only numerical control machinery, able to assemble and guarantee high quality pieces, ensures the success of an outstanding product worthy of MBM Biliardi. The inauguration of the factory in 1995 together with the start of the World Billiard Championship held in Italy, in Fiuggi city, has launched a tradition of experience for MBM.
